Yeah, I’m also one of these people silently enjoying systemd and wayland. Every now and then there’s fuzz on one of these. I shrug, and move on still enjoying both of them.

A big monitor with 100% AdobeRGB is going to be very very expensive. And if you want it to be 65", you just can’t find them…
And it is a monitor, meant to be watched from a close distance. It will not be such a great experience for movies and such.
Rust and Cargo enters the room.
128 GB here which runs out if I compile the complete project at work with -j32. And this sucks because 128 GB right now means the RAM cannot run super fast, meaning it is a bottleneck to any modern Ryzen…
A random hacker news comment. I’m in EU, where this kind of tracking is not legal, so I cannot validate…
If it is a Samsung tv, they have been automatically connecting to any open wifi, maybe your neighbor has one. And there goes the data.
Avoid Samsung.
We’ve been using Linear in my latest company and it is actually quite good. No bullshit fast UI, boards, issues linking with Git, a support that can take a feature request that is often implemented in a week or two after asking it.
Yeah. He is pretty horrible. What surprised me though is his daughter’s film company has a pretty solid track record on quality movies and tv series:

But yeah, Larry Elison sucks…
In my experience, nix works exceptionally well with Rust. Python and JavaScript are nastier, especially if the libraries use C extensions.
Musl can be a bit annoying compilation target sometimes. Usually it works but I’ve debugged bugs a few times that were due to musl target.
I prefer my distro with glibc…
But do not run Linux, the kernel.
Signal always responds to authorities when they ask for data, and they give them all they have: the day they registered, their phone number and the timestamp they last used the app.
Telegram has unencrypted channels of drug dealing, and what I heard is a lot of illegal porn too. The authorities want information on certain users there and Telegram doesn’t comply. This is directly against the law Signal is not breaking, because they always send all the data they have to the law enforcement.
Never had one, just partied in the uni and dropped out :D
So basically your typical network protocol is something that converts an async stream of bytes into things like Postgres Row objects. What you do then is you write a synchronous library that does the byte conversion, then you write an asynchronous library that talks with the database with async functions, but most of the business logic is sync for converting the data coming from the async pipe.
Now, this can also be done in a higher level application. You do a server that is by nature async in 2024. Write the server part in async, and implement a sync set of mapping functions which take a request coming in and returns a response. This can be sync. If you need a database, this sync set of functions maps a request to a database query, and your async code can then call the database with the query. Another set of sync functions maps the database result into http response. No need to color everything async.
The good part with this approach is that if you want to make a completely sync version of this library or application, you just rewrite the async IO parts and can reuse all the protocol business logic. And you can provide sync and async versions of your library too!
That’s why you write your protocol as a sync library, then implement the async IO separately and mapping the data over the protocol modules.
Meanwhile these CPUs are amazing on Linux

For some reason Windows scheduler is not as good as the one found in the Linux kernel with the zen5.
Just waiting for one that requires you to compile one Monad to define your whole distro. Types all the way.
Then I’m writing a blog post how your Linux distro is a burrito.
Not a sysadmin, but a programmer. My work machines have been:
Probably going to keep using NixOS. This is a very cool OS.
